Victorian Dogs, Victorian Men: Affect and Animals in Nineteenth-Century Literature and Culture by
Keridiana W. Chez is the first monograph located at the intersection of
animal and affect studies to examine how gender is produced via the
regulation of interspecies relationships. Looking specifically at the
development of the human-dog relationship, Chez argues that the
bourgeoisie fostered connections with canine companions in order to
mediate and regulate gender dynamics in the family. As Chez shows, the
aim of these new practices was not to use animals as surrogates to fill
emotional vacancies but rather to incorporate them as “emotional
prostheses.”
Chez traces the evolution of the human-dog
relationship as it developed parallel to an increasingly imperialist
national discourse. The dog began as the affective mediator of the
family, then addressed the emotional needs of its individual members,
and finally evolved into both “man’s best friend” and worst enemy. By
the last decades of the nineteenth century, the porous human-animal
boundary served to produce the “humane” man: a liberal subject enabled
to engage in aggressive imperial projects. Reading the work of Charles
Dickens, George Eliot, Margaret Marshall Saunders, Bram Stoker, and Jack
London, Victorian Dogs, Victorian Men charts the mobilization of
affect through transatlantic narratives, demonstrating the deep
interconnections between animals, affect, and gender.
